Scots Guards (Stewart Regiment Hammers Slammers) Launch



A somewhat embarrassing moment .......

I thought id had the Scots Guards on sale for the past month and I started to think nobody and I mean nobody liked them as Id not sold a single one

Then Id realised Id forgotten to put them on my shop for sale...........It might be nobody wants them, however at least I've now a chance to sell them! :)

So...they are up on my shop at www.armiesarmy.com/shop





The troops are the Elite Light Infantry of the Commonwealth Forces and largely use the Regular armies kit. As light forces -later releases will provide light Anti Tank Shoulder Launched weaponry, GPMG teams, Sniper team, mortar, portable grenade launchers and the HQ squad. The HQ squad will come with the famous piper :)


More great news!.......


These troops are officially approved for Hammers Slammers to !:) They will supplement my Commonwealth forces and provide troops for the following factions.
Hammers Slammers Forces
Hammers Slammers Stewarts Forces

I am very pleased to be included in the universe! :)

Look out for further announcements :) These troops will be getting some strike vehicles in the near future :)
